    President-elect Donald Trump announced Tuesday evening that he has selected Linda McMahon to lead the Department of Education.

    McMahon, 76, served during Trump's first term in office as the Administrator of the Small Business Administration.

    "It is my great honor to announce that Linda McMahon, former Administrator of the Small Business Administration, will be the United States Secretary of Education," Trump said in a statement.

    McMahon has spent the last four years serving as the Chair of the Board at the America First Policy Institute (AFPI).

    "So proud of my friend and America First Patriot @Linda_McMahon for answering the call to head the Department of Education!" said AFPI Executive Director Chad Wolf.

    "As a strong supporter of school choice and parental rights, there is no one better to expel the woke agenda in our education system and put our children first," he added.

    Trump said that as Secretary of Education, McMahon will "fight tirelessly" to expand school choice in every state and "empower parents to make the best education decisions for their families."

    McMahon previously served for two years on the Connecticut Board of Education where she was one of fifteen members who oversaw all public education in the state, the Trump transition team said.

    "Linda will use her decades of Leadership experience, and deep understanding of both Education and Business, to empower the next Generation of American Students and Workers, and make America Number One in Education in the World," Trump said. "We will send Education BACK TO THE STATES, and Linda will spearhead that effort."

Do parents & grandparents ever speak w/ their children abt why they are in school? Or abt th PURPOSE as it pertains, directly to the future wellbeing of your child? Does he/she know that there is a "future" and how well they are prepared for it, will affect their comfort in life?
Does your child understand why the daily assignment is important to learning well? Does he/she understand that each daily lesson is a foundation for the next daily lesson, and w/out the first, the second will be lost?
Dont just think because u told your child something, that they've gotten it. Repetition, repetition, repetition is how they learn.
Dont just take your child's grade A for granted. Reward them!
But also in today's environment, dont for a moment believe that an A+ grade means they did A work. Dumbing down is where we are at now.
Lead by example. They are watching u constantly!
If u love your child, never use them as a weapon against your spouse, with which u have a love/hate relationship.
